There is a busy 200 berth marina and chandlery with yachts coming and going throughout the year. The village has a very well stocked store and the local pub and restaurant, 'The Lord of the Isles' producing excellent dining and bar meals for all of the family.

There are many things to do in and around the village without the need to drive anywhere if you don't want to .
